Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

in that example, sure.

when the dump pipe is fabricated get them to make a section that can unbolt so you can seal up the exhaust and have it as a screamer but also gives you the option to plumb it back with relative ease.

some people love them forever, some people like them for a bit and then just want it to shut up.

This.. My mate had this setup

Only because the abomination is a thirsty POS.

Mayb I plan on making it more fuel efficiant

hop to it......there is no reason the abom should use more fuel than that falcoon.

^ this. Old cars can be good if u look after them.

AU falcon is not an old car.......its newer than your GTR! by alot. still a horrible POS

Screamer pipes with big turbs and external gates give me wood... Just a warning Scott lol

V8s cracking gate = Jizz in my pants

so true, check out the McLaren P1 Jay leno garage......that engine is wastegateerific :)

Bodo my AU Falcon is only 5 years older than my R32. It's certainly not that new.

Haha nope, didn't u see my hectic falcoon

Indeed I did.....still wouldnt drive it by choice. but for the price...i guess you cant argue. would still go for the Hatsu or similar small FWD cheapness instead. I miss my Madaz

I just learned somthing ( and so did the irritating p plater) the mighty mazdarati is faster than mk4 golf gti....just. got to throw 3x scissors lol

i find this hard to Believe. But then P platers are pretty bad at driving :)

I assume you mean newer? to me an old car has a Carby :thumbsup:

Well gnite peps. Hope to get the Ant-Eater this week ;)

night Ants, hope to see it out and about soon.

Why? The mazda makes a few kw more and the same torque and is only a smidge heavier. It also has no lag. Which I think was the deciding factor.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
